Raining out. Everything is covered up and I cannot work on it.

I got the vinyl all glued down and cut out where the wheel wells go. When the original flooring was cut flush with the wood it left a hole for sand and debris to fall in. When I took out the wheel wells I found pounds of sand, change, beer caps, and other stuff. I am leaving flaps of vinyl to keep this from happening again. s1285.photobucket.com/user/brokevet/media/P4060415_zps9407d468.jpg.html

Looking good. You did your floor similar to how we did our Airstream. Its the only way you can replace the floor in an Airstream but I`m amazed that you managed this with this type framing. I would have thought the whole flimsy design (sorry Shasta) would have collapsed in a heap.

You have to know what the camper wants to do. When the paneling and skins are removed mine wants to lean left and fall forward. So I used 2x4's to brace it accordingly. And I built the Curbside wall framing with glue and screws before I lifted everything off the floor. I next will build the Streetside wall frame. I did leave the top skin on all around to keep things in shape. It was like a table. The top is straight and square. The skinny legs need to be kept aligned so the top doesn't come crashing down.
